It is not easy to confront people with the truth. However, if your want to help people grow spiritually, you need to confront those things that may be blocking their progress. Some blocks to spiritual progress are unforgiveness, fear, lack of wisdom, anger, resentment, or unbelief.
Of course, there are many more blocks to spiritual progress. My Holy Spirit has the job of conforming you to My image, but this is a lifetime assignment.
My body on Earth needs to do more than just exhort one another to love and good works. They also need to rebuke and reprove. I have given My Word to instruct, correct and reprove believers. When you rebuke or reprove a fellow believer, exhort them to abide in Me, abide in My love, and abide in My Word. Then keep praying for them to be open to allowing My Spirit to conform them to Me.
2 TIMOTHY 3:16, 4:2; HEBREWS 3:13

SOMMER FAMILY BLESSING
Welcome to the blog for Linda Sommer.
My Blog will cover three subjects:
WORD FROM THE LORD, FAMILY, and MINISTRY.
WORD FROM THE LORD
Every day I spend time with the Lord in the morning and He speaks to my heart words that are encouraging, exhorting and sometimes rebuking.
At first, I felt not to share these words with others, but then I realized I am just one of His followers. There are many people who need a word daily from the Lord, but they do not have the time to seek Him. This is why I decided to share the words I received from time to time. The messages are in first person as the the Lord relayed them to my spirtual ears.
FAMILY
We have three sons and nine grandchildren. There is something new happening all the time in the Sommer family. I will post some of these events of interest.
MINISTRY
Tom and I have traveled the world. To find out more about our ministry you may consult our webpage -

I will keep you updated on future speaking enagements and ministry developments.
